I know everyone hates ads. But please understand that I am providing premium content for free that takes hundreds of hours of time to research and write. If I can't make at least a little bit of money to support my family via this site, I'll have to stop working on it.
One alternative is to become a RuneScoop member. It's cheap, you get access to all of the site with no ads, and you help keep the lights on around here.
If you want to use this site for free, I'd be grateful if you could add RuneScoop to the whitelist for Adblock. To do so, just open the Adblock menu and select "Disable on Runescoop.com". Or go to the Tools menu and select "Adblock Plus Preferences...". Then click "Add Filter..." at the bottom, and add this string: "@@http://*runescoop.com/*". Then just click OK.
Thanks for your understanding!
Sincerely... Qeltar, aka Charles, your hard-working host and RuneScape guide-writer extraordinaire. :)

General Method Description
Chompy killing is usually called "hunting", because it represents a combination of normal ranged combat and elements of the Hunter skill, which chompy hunting preceded. It is done for fun and to get cool chompy hats, but can also be a way to make money, since raw chompy meat is the primary ingredient in wild pies and hence rather valuable.
The biggest nuisance with collecting the chompy meat is that it is very heavy, so it used to be necessary to use energy potions to restore lost energy. However, recent changes have made run energy restore naturally at a much higher rate, so this is no longer an issue.
At mid level and up you should have completed the Zogre Flesh Eaters quest, so you can wield the ogre composite bow. This is better than the regular bow, especially if you use good arrows like adamant brutals (rune brutals are better still, but pricey.) Use a spirit terrorbird at mid and high levels to carry extra chompy meat, or a pack yak at level 96. Don't use a war tortoise as its high pouch cost doesn't pay off here.
